"HOLA LOVERS. 'I've got this award in the bag,' I said, and what did my stylist do? Send me to an award IN a bag."

This is elegant in the extreme.

GORGEOUS. It's so good, y'all. WORK, Angelica.

This needs an unfugging. Take off the peplum and, I think, either take it up or give it a proper train so it doesn't just tent on the floor. I think I'd stop the bodice at her true waist, also. Of course, once we do all that, she might look like a bridesmaid, but then again, she IS the bridesmaid to J.Lo's Hustlers bride, so I guss that's apt.

Florence Pugh in Valentino

This is a LOT of fancy origami on our new Amy March. She's carrying it off surprisingly well; another win for Ladies Who Are Making So-So Clothes Look Better.

Gugu Mbatha-Raw in Erdem

Hmm. I might've liked this if it stayed smooth all the way down? It's a clear case for me of the wearer elevating what's worn.

Isabella Rossellini

I imagine her and Helen Mirren being on a WhatsApp chain where they taunt each other. "YOUR MOVE DAME HELEN," Isabella has just texted.

Olivia Wilde in Ralph Lauren

This is slinky and super, but problematically, for me it evokes a much better version by Michael Kors that she once wore to the Golden Globes. (And then another, redder Kors from the Tonys.) Although her HAIR here is much better, so can we mix and match, retroactively?

Keke Palmer in Christian Siriano

This is pleasingly dramatic, but doesn't it almost look... slightly too big on her? It looked crisper on the runway, and I liked it with the weird metallic turtleneck, too (unexpectedly).

Greta Gerwig in Lela Rose

I am whelmed.

Cynthia Erivo in Valentino

I wonder if the shock on her face is because this doesn't look quite as planned. I like it, theoretically. Gorgeous color, flowy Charismatic Cult Leader cut... but it's a little bunchy on the sleeves, and it just kinda hangs there... it's good, but it could have been awesome.

I mean, it's a good try, but it doesn't fix the fact that the sleeves are clearly too long.

Lupita Nyong'o in Givenchy

That is a pretty dress, and the bangs are REALLY REALLY undermining her face. I am not anti-bangs, but I am a) resistant to change, and b) a big believer in every bang having the right context, and Lupita doesn't need 'em.

Thomasin McKenzie in Rodarte

Y'all know I want to tweak that big froofy bottom portion but Thomasin is not coming quietly into the red-carpet world and I appreciate that.

Sasha Alexander in Vitor Zerbinato

Simple and pretty, but...

Awkwafina in J. Mendel

... THIS is the zazzy version, and I love it.

America Ferrera in Sachin & Babi

She looks wonderful, and that LIPSTICK. YES. I can't decide if I love that hem length on her, but I like the rest so much that I'm just going to chill the hell out.

Regina King in Ralph & Russo

This is a surprisingly strong slideshow, right? Or am I just deeper in my cups than I realized?

Scarlett Johansson in Celine

There is also a wide swath of designers present. Celine always feels unexpected and rare. I don't love the abdominal poofing in this skirt design, but the gold top is nifty? Scarlett's makeup artist is REALLY into the aggressive liner right now, also.

Dakota Johnson in Brandon Maxwell

This works well on her, but also, you can't deny that the bodice appears to be one of those antiviral masks.

Charlize Theron in Tom Ford

Mandatory Credit: Photo by NINA PROMMER/EPA-EFE/Shutterstock (10457952cu) Charlize Theron poses on the red carpet prior the 11th Annual Governors Awards at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood, California, USA, 27 October 2019. 11th Annual Governors Awards - Arrivals, Hollywood, USA - 27 Oct 2019

No sooner did I praise this slideshow than this rolled along. It's the sloppiest thing Tom Ford has done in... well, in MY memory, at least. It's ghastly.

Chrissy Metz

This is... fine. But doesn't feel nearly as formal as everyone else's.

Geena Davis in Romona Keveza

Very nice! I hope she wears an homage to her sheer dress at the Oscars. (Note: I do not sincerely hope this.)(OR DO I.)

"I am so upset about this that my dress has WASTED AWAY TO ALMOST NOTHING."

Laura Dern in Brandon Maxwell

This is very sedate. It's a fashion sorbet, cleansing her palate for something wacky later.

Alfre Woodard

I can't actually tell if that's secret pants or not, but regardless, it's comfortingly competent.

Nia Long

Those earrings are IT.

Sophia Loren

What a goddess.

Renee Zellweger

This is... fine, sort of heavy-looking, ultimtely unmemorable.

And the Booksmart ladies are bringing it home for us in high style. 

The Governors Awards Were a Super Colorful Affair This Year
And a star-freaking-studded one.
